Re: Apple PowerMac G5

Doesn't Apple maintain mkLinux?  It's linux running on top of Mach.  I had it 
installed on my 8500 a few years ago.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if they had mkLinux running on it, as it would 
be another way to test the hardware.  Maybe they'd be willing to release the 
source before they release the box.

Also, Apple has a hardware compatibility test lab that developers can get free 
time at.  They have unreleased, but announced hardware there. If you bring an 
installed hard drive with you, and you were quick about it, you could port 
Linux to it in the day they give you to test ;->
